I don't put pressure on myself. When I put pressure on myself, then I just play bad. When I play bad, my team plays bad.
I understand the NBA and the role I play on my team. I know that I have to play a leadership role and do whatever I have to do to win.
Man, I think the sky is the limit for this team.
We're still getting better as a team. We're still learning how to play basketball as a team and how to win tough games.
Although you do look at the big picture, if you're dealing with the now, it can be kind of frustrating. You're losing basketball games, things not going the way you want it to go or should go, but at the same time we've just got to stay with it. Just stay positive, just stay focused, as a team, as a unit, because the ship easily can sink early.
The new guys bring energy, intensity and emotion. The last couple games, they showed what they can bring to the team.
These close games that we're losing, the teams are not beating us. We're kind of beating ourselves.
I think people fail to realize that teams and organizations have been stacking teams since way back in the day.
Allen Iverson is a ball hog. You will never win a championship with him on your team.
I am looking forward to continue my career in Orange & Blue and to work with Phil Jackson, a champion who builds championship teams. Madison Square Garden is the mecca of basketball and I am surrounded by the greatest fans in the world.
I'm me. I'm just out there being myself. I like having fun. But at the same time, I bring everybody together. So I'm really -- or I try to be -- like the glue of the team.
I never envisioned myself playing for the U.S. Olympic team -- growing up, I never envisioned playing in the NBA, to be real with you. I never envisioned that type of stuff. So this is like a dream that I never had come true. It's like I'm a part of what's really going on. It's still very hard for me to believe that I am really going to be a part of the biggest thing in the whole entire world.
I think people fail to realize that teams and organizations have been stacking teams since way back in the day. The Lakers had the Showtime era. Boston had six hall of famers on one team. You had Detroit, the New York Knicks, and now the Miami Heat. They were stacking their teams back then, it just fell off over the years and now it picked back up. Boston did it first, then LA. I was fortunate enough to play against them when they had Shaq, Kobe, Rick Fox, Gary Payton, Karl Malone... that's five hall of famers on one team! So you can't get mad at Miami for doing what they did.
